The DH 82 Tiger Moth turbine modification

Tiger moths G-AHIZ and G-AOEI have been fitted with air driven alternators.

The CAA certificated modification was conducted in order to provide reliable power for the radio and future fitting of a transponder if enforced.

The turbine was designed to provide 7 amps, 14 volts at 70 knots.

The turbine has been operational on both aircraft over several years and has proved to be reliable.

The modification charges a small NiCad battery. This provides power for taxing and back up. The system uses a master switch, which prevents the discharging of the battery when the turbine is not in operation.

Cambridge Flying Group, own the rights to this modification. A small payment is due to CFG if used.
